I'm not really quite sure which is my favorite because most of them I generally liked.

Though, I would have to say I did not fully enjoy SEED/SEED DESTINY. At first it was like "Oh, thats cool! It is not like the opposing side has never tried to steal the others new mechca (Gundam)!". It wasn't too bad at first, but it suddenly just got real lame. I watched DESTINY out of bordem and the only good thing that came out of that entire series was that Shin got owned by Kira.

first of all I loved the story.. and the characters, not to mention it had the best opening (of those shows I've seen so far)

and the biggest reason of all.. it was what got my attention to anime in general

and why I actually watched the show back then when it was shown on TV.. cause well.. when you turn on TV.. and want to watch cartoons (I expected a kids show ^^) .. you don't expect people to get vaporized by energy beams.. *chuckles*

It was the first Gundam I ever watched but so far the only one that I can watch over and over and never get tired of it following closely with G Gundam, but Gundam 00 is not far from tying with Gundam Wing

SEED/Destiny made me bleed after the first few episodes with the only good parts being
a w**** manipulating the protagonist (lol Flay I lol'd when you died) and Shin pwning Jesus Yamato (too bad you got owned later when you went emo).

For me it has to be Gundam Seed , I know that gundam purist don't like to here it but without it I never would have got involved in gundam at all. I did watch gundam wing first but it didn't really do it for me it was to political for me at the time. My second favorite has to be the most under rated gundam series and that is Gundam X.

Vote goes to Other and 00. Watched almost all of Tomino's works as well as the original series of late. Even though most of them were quite good, 00 will get my vote as it's unparalleled on many levels. Storytelling, characters and character development, world presentation and it's constant changing nature, politics and it's realism and most of all, depth. I'd take 'Char's Counterattack' as the best Gundam before 00.

EDIT. 0080 and 0083 as well as 8th MS Team. Forgot to mention those. It's a hard tie with 'Char's Counterattack'. Those series provided unique insight on different kinds of war. They have their own unique universe in which they shine.

Well G-Gundam came mostly as a self parody of the Gundam franchise, even it's title is Mobile Fighter G-Gundam, and not Mobile Suit *insert* Gundam *alternate insert* like all the other series of the franchise.
If you take the Gundam-Fight premise on the 2nd degree, what remains are a beautiful story with some big plot twists, and epic characters that makes an enjoyable show.

On a similar vein Turn A Gundam is my favorite serie. Similarly it feels a little weird as it was meant as a conclusion of the Gundam franchise, but the serie itself is a true piece of art.

I found the design for the titular Turn A Gundam to be extremely strange. But then I saw a model line-up of Gundam, Gundam MkII, Victory Gundam, and Turn A Gundam, and suddenly, the design made sense to me.

After two years Turn A is still my favourite Gundam, as for 00 not sure where I would put it on my list then again I can't rate a show that's not done yet.

Currently my top 3:
1. Turn A
2. V
3. MSG
